    2x2x2+1+1+1=11
    2x2x2x3x3x3=216

  2. 1 + 1 + 1 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 24
    2 + 2 + 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 162

    My answer is.

    1) 2 x 2 x 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 11
    2) 3 x 3 x 3 x 2 x 2 x 2 =216
    If you do it the other way around it comes out the same number.
    2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 216

  4. 2x2x2+1+1+1 = 11

    3x3x3x2x2x2 = 9×8 =72
